I am about to install Fedora Linux for the first time. I am making a dual boot system with win98SE. I do not want a boot menu. Can I just boot from my recovery disk or have lilo make a boot floppy?
FC4 no longer includes LILO (don't recall if it was pulled in FC3 or FC4).Theoretically you could omit installing grub, and boot off a rescue CD and mount your partitions. But that's less optimum -- you won't end up booting a number of processes that normally run at startup - cron, et al, which may result in strange, mysterious malfunctions from time to time.
Until you have more experience with these sort of things, you are better off booting the system normally.
